  • I've verified and I assure that I'm running youtube-dl 2018.09.18

Before submitting an issue make sure you have:

  • At least skimmed through the README, most notably the FAQ and BUGS sections
  • Searched the bugtracker for similar issues including closed ones
  • Checked that provided video/audio/playlist URLs (if any) are alive and playable in a browser

What is the purpose of your issue?

  • Bug report (encountered problems with youtube-dl)

If the purpose of this issue is a bug report, site support request or you are not completely sure provide the full verbose output as follows:

Add the -v flag to your command line you run youtube-dl with (youtube-dl -v <your command line>), copy the whole output and insert it here. It should look similar to one below (replace it with your log inserted between triple ```):

Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

Any video trying to download via hotstar.com, seems to be redirecting to a particular URL, which results in downloading an 'Update your app.mp4' file. The videos are playable via browser.

The sample video url: https://www.hotstar.com/tv/kasthooriman/s-1347/kavya-reconciles-with-jeeva/1100009804

For the above video, instead of picking up this m3u8 (https://hsdesinova.akamaized.net/video/asianet_hd/kasthooriman/240/master_Layer5_.m3u8), it is picking up (https://hssportsprepack.akamaized.net/videos/cricket/asiacup2018/18_09_2018/2001618252/master_Layer8.m3u8)

I can repro this. It's downloading an 'update your app' video instead of the requested video.
